Buyers' Guide

Associations often have a need to allow their members to promote their goods and services through the association website. This search tool can sometimes be a simple directory and other times result in a buyers' guide. The idea behind the guide includes the ability for the member to input demographics about  their organization and then let other members and the public search for them based on the goods and the services they provide. The following list contains links to some of the work that ATS has done for clients resulting in a public facing search mechanism.

National Intramural-Recreational Sports Association

NIRSA’s buyers’ guide was written completely custom according to NIRSA’s very specific requirements. The buyers’ guide allows members to search for companies by specific categories or by keyword. Results include a company logo and are styled to NIRSA’s exact requirements. Each company listing has an updatable profile that allows users to get more information regarding each company.

The Builders’ Association

Builders’ buyers’ guide was written using a custom search page, ATS’ Custom Query Display iPart, and custom code (to allow to print and share the listing). Builders’ design is a minimalistic approach and gives users the ability to find exactly what they are looking for very easily.
